Yes, I am familiar with them, and have used shotguns outdoors with the furry critters (when nothing else would work) several times.

I was making light of the fact (humorously, I thought) that the gallery you linked to looked more like a bunch of furrbies in a lightning storm.

I swear if I get one, it's getting a pair of plastic eyes to complete the look. Lighten up and use your imagination!
